What does your preop diet consist of? Mine was only for a week (thank God) but was 2 shakes and one small meal a day. I did my meal during lunch so it was easier to space out the shakes and not feel so deprived. It was hard for the first 3 days by then the headaches and shakiness had subsided. Try and hang in there though :) .

I am getting banded on Jan 11th too! I don't start my pre-op diet until Jan 1st but I'm already freaking out a little. I think the first couple days will be the worst. Our minds are our worst enemies sometimes. I'm going to try to keep my hands busy.....scrapbooking, suduko..... The evenings will be the hardest for me after I get home from work and the rest of the family is eating! WE CAN DO IT!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
